PRIZE-WINNING POLYNESIAN PORK OVER RICE
I recently inherited my Great Aunt's recipe collection. This is a recipe from her recipe box that she clipped out of the Chicago Tribune. It had won the "$5 Favorite Recipe prize." From the splatters on the clipping, I imagine my Aunt enjoyed this one. These days,I might try browning the meat in a little olive oil instead of the bacon drippings. Despite the name, I doubt this is a traditional Polynesian dish, but rather is one inspired by Polynesian cuisine.

POLYNESIAN RICE
I make this in a rice cooker and it's super simple! When I have frozen diced onion, red, and green bell pepper mix on hand, I use 2 T of that in place of the fresh onion and peppers, and it's every bit as good. I really prefer the mix of red and green peppers in this dish to just plain ol' green sweet peppers. I frequently use the reduced sodium version of both the soy sauce and the chicken broth and it turns out just fine.
